A second attempt - CNR5103 - 03-02-2022

Today was a day in the paint room.  After painting two new cars, I decided to give a second attempt at weathering.  As I am still practicing new techniques, I choose a simple boxcar which is not much detailed.  Here are the results :

   

   

   

It seems this car had run behind a steamer for many years.

I applied diluted acrylic paints with an a newly acquired double action airbrush.  I would certainly have had better results with more practice with the airbrush which is quite different from my old single action.

Comments and criticisms are welcome.
